Sometimes I just want to smack some of these people. Champagne tastes on an extreme beer budget. They want the world and every ticky-tacky detail from their unrealistic wish list, yet they don't want to pay for it.
 
Or, they will pass up the perfect place with everything from their wish list just because it doesn't have that unrealistic perfect Mountainesque view from the backyard.
 
There is NO WAY I could be a real estate agent. I would kill them and bury them in the backyard. 4951

Someone tattled on them a few years ago. Apparently the house has already been decided and has a contract on it or has even already closed then two other fake homes are added in to look like they have a big decision to make. The couple that made a stink about it said one of the potential houses they toured was actually their neighbors home. But regardless, some of those people on that show come off looking like mindless idiots! 4951

Love-hate relationship. It is a "nothing else on" go to. At the same time it is fake which is annoying - not that hard to do it for real. Coached language:
Price point? What's wrong with just price?
En suite? Did we give up on master bath?
Open concept....give it a rest.
Ooh, we need 4 bedroom three and a half bath, beachfront, our budget is $250k. "Hey this house is a dump!" 4951

@ET: Hey, I say en suite. "Master Bath" sounds too close to "meditating"

@mutton, or when their realtor looks at them and says popcorn ceilings are an easy fix.  No they aren't.  They are a mess pita to fix.

I hate that it is fake. I enjoy watching the houses but I get distracted because it is so contrived. I recently saw a Houston couple on it and got curious so I googled them. They explained how they auditioned after buying their home in The Heights and had to fake the shopping for homes part, and even had to convince a realtor to  pretend to take them house hunting.http://www.chron.com/news/article/Real-people-HGTV-turn-reminds-agent-that-clients-6105561.php 4951

 Unless you are married to David Draiman (lead singer of Distrubed), a music room is not a must have.
 
@Fallon: I love his. He has an amazing voice.

I hate the words open concept.  So tired of hearing that.  I would never want my kitchen open up to my living room.  Had that is the first house we built.  Hated it, hated it, hated it.My main complaint with this show and the fixer up shows are the men that insist on having a music room.  One man had to have a music room put in over getting the bathrooms updated.  No way on earth.  I would have torched the house first.  You use the bathrooms daily, the music room could wait.  Unless you are married to David Draiman (lead singer of Distrubed), a music room is not a must have.
 
@Fallon:
 
Pretty sure I will never ever buy another "open concept" home. I'm with you on this. 4951
